Frequently Asked Questions
- What size post or column is this base designed for?
- This column base is designed for a nominal 6x8 post or column, making it ideal for heavy structural applications such as decks and patio covers.
- Why is the 1 in. standoff important?
- The 1 in. standoff keeps the bottom of the post or column elevated above the concrete surface. This design meets code requirements and reduces the potential for moisture-related decay at the post and column ends, extending the life of the structure.
- Can this column base be installed in wet concrete?
- Yes. The CBSQ86-SDS2HDG is designed to embed in wet concrete at the time of pour, allowing it to be set during the foundation pour for a strong, integrated connection.
- Why choose the Hot-Dip Galvanized finish for this column base?
- Hot-dip galvanization (HDG) provides extra corrosion resistance compared to standard finishes, making this column base well-suited for exterior applications and use with treated wood where moisture and chemical exposure can accelerate corrosion.
